My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 96

Chapter 95

Ashlyn behaved as though she couldn’t be bothered by their identity at all. Therefore, Hera’s mother, who enjoyed being flattered by others, couldn’t get used to it.

“Perhaps that’s how a famous doctor behaves,” Hera’s father replied.

By then, the surgery commenced once Ashlyn had everything she needed in store ready.

Those from the Chaplin family gathered outside of the operating theater, including Hera.

She had the latest designer’s items on, including the dress as a matching handbag she carried along with her. Hera approached her mother, asking, “How’s Grandpa?”

“Don’t worry. The famous doctor, Ashlyn is carrying out the surgery as we speak. I’m sure everything will be fine.” Hera’s mother held on to her hand, promising. “It’s such a hot day. You must be tired, right?”

“I’m fine, mom.” Hera took a seat by her mother’s side.

Hera’s mother whispered, “Is Lucas aware that your grandfather is in such a major surgery?”

Hera shook her head, but she reached for her phone and promised her mother she would get in touch with him because she didn’t want to embarrass her in front of others. She behaved as though Lucas would definitely fall for her and asserted, “I’ll give him a call immediately.”

All of a sudden, Hera’s mother got full of herself, instructing as she tapped on her hand, “Go ahead.”

Hera excused herself and made her way over to the fire escape before calling Lucas.

Once the call got through, she put on a pitiable front, sniffling, “Lucas, my grandfather is in the middle of surgery. Can you please join me at the hospital and keep me company? I’m afraid...”

The man’s indifferent voice could be heard coming from the other end of the call, asking, “Where are you?”

Hera beamed once she hung up the call. The pitiable front was merely an act.

She didn’t return to the operating theater to join her family. Instead, she stood in front of the elevator, in anticipation of Lucas’ arrival.

Twenty minutes later, a man with a black coat walked out of the elevator.

Lucas received Hera’s call once he reached home and got changed.

Since he was notified of Mr. Chapman’s condition, he would have to drop by and pay him a visit out of courtesy.

He chose to show up in the hospital because he had to put on a show since they had been family friends all along.

Hera’s eyes gleamed the moment Lucas showed up. She rushed over to welcome him, greeting, “Lucas! You’re finally here!”

The man had a great build, slender pair of legs, and broad shoulders. As usual, the outfits he had showed off his qualities, contributing to his ethereal appearance, charming his fangirls.
